I finnally got my Dell 30" but unable to hook it up to my laptop. I have search all over my city for a laptop that will drives the 30" Dual Link DVI and found 2 laptop with a DVI interface in the whole [censored] city but it only drives up to 2048x1536 resolution. Anyone know a laptop will support this beast? thanks

I've been waiting on something for 6+ months. Only laptop I have seen is the macbook. I find it so strange that there is still nothing to support this. You would think DELL would be on top of it by now.

Re: Any laptop that can drive 2560x1600 Dell 3007WFP?
I found this post in the Dell forum.
"I thought I'd mention for those who really want a laptop now that will work with the 30" at its max resolution (2560 x 1600), Alienware's Aurora m9700 and Aurora mALX will work (according to the Alienware rep I spoke to). " I would appreciated if someone can confirm it, but it does make sense that it will support it because it is a Dual 512MB NVidia® GeForce™ Go 7900 GS - SLI Enabled, that's 1G graphic card! |

Dell recommends DUAL 1GB nVidia™ GeForce™ 7950GX2 Dual GPU SLI graphics cards, but this is another 900GBP.
They said I could use 1GB nVidia™ GeForce™ 7950GX2 Dual GPU graphics card at 1/3 of the above price, but the quality will suffer. Is this a serious concern (ie. visibly different) or just not as optimal? Sorry this is slightly off topic as its not about laptops. |

I talked to the Alienware people not too long ago and they said they did not offer a Dual Link DVI on a laptop. Is this a new product? I'm skeptical as the tech specs do not state it is Dual Link DVI but if someone can confirm or deny you never know.

Centgas I think you have been mislead by DELL. The problem is that a lot of graphics cards do not support Dual Link DVI. Adding a 2nd video card that does or does not support Dual Link DVI will not change the compatibility with the 3007. (By this I mean run at full resolution)

From Alienware: Unfortunately, none of our models offer dual DVI.
